The Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies II (Vegan)

I made my favourite cookies again last night, but I was out of all-purpose flour and aquafaba. I didn't want to open a can of chickpeas just to get 3 tablespoons of aquafaba, so I tried the recipe with a flax egg.

I managed to come up with a cup of flour by scraping the bottom of a few jars. Now I'm also out of whole wheat pastry flour and oat flour. Luckily I still had a bit of spelt flour. Anyway, the combination was equally as delicious as the original recipe, plus, oat and spelt flours are a bit better for you than all-purpose flour.

The cookies were still chewy and crispy, they just looked slightly different. 
Above: The raisin cookies were slightly puffier than usual.

The Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies II (Vegan)
Makes 16 cookies

Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon ground flax
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 cup vegan butter, room temperature (I used organic Earth Balance)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup oat flour
  • ¼ cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • ½ cup + 2 tablespoons spelt flour
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (vegan if it matters to you) or raisins
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350F.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the flax and water to make a flax egg. Let the mixture sit while you beat the butter.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat the butter and sugars with a whisk for a few minutes until creamy. You could also use a wooden spoon if it's easier for you.
  4. Beat in the baking powder, baking soda, salt, vanilla and flax egg until well combined.
  5. Mix in the flours with a spoon or spatula, followed by the chocolate chips or raisins. You could also add nuts at this point if you wish.
  6. Using a small cookie scoop, drop the batter about 2" apart onto a parchment lined cookie sheet.
  7. Bake for 8-10  minutes or until the edges start to turn golden. You don't want to burn them so watch them carefully. Let them sit on the sheet for a minute or two until they're firm enough to transfer to a wire rack. I just use my egg flipper so they don’t fall apart during the transfer.
  8. Store them on a covered plate or in a container with a lid.
